For those who love and grow Hybrid Tea roses, this one is still popular, and widely planted today. A nice rose in the garden, or as a cut flower. It reminds me of those silk roses you can buy with the exact same color!

To get a glimpse of what this might be like, take a walk out to your garden at this time and see how the dark flowers are not visible, but the white ones come alive at night!
